Maxon Cinema4D studio has python module, in fact even SmithMicro Poser has Python support, and for a while, talented third parties were making some excellent add ons for the program, such as the poser physics/ragdoll plugin that I used for years before migrating from Mac to Windows and natural motion endorphin for ragdoll. (poser python physics)
Sadly its full potential in poser was never realized but that is another subject entirely. :-/

Hi Job,
100% agree.
Python is widely spread and today used world-wide, so something good should be in there...
RL made a choice and considering that also Blender uses it, I am ok to dig more into it: I already made a Python training in the past so now I can go one step further with Pyside2 lib which I do not know yet.
Cheers
Roberto

It seems to me it is now best to focus on what can actually be done with Python. As I have pointed out before, other 3D packages also use Python (Blender , Houdini), so it can't be all that bad. Checking out Udemy courses, I'm noticing a wide variety of areas where Python is used as well.

Let me ask you a simple question: what's your goal for this crusade against Python?
You don't like it? Fine... don't use it.
I also personally prefer C++ or C# vs. Python but RL has chosen Python, so that's ok... no need to waste time to beg for another language.
Anything more important to discuss here?

It's now the #2 programming language (Java is first). Although it does depend on the polls (but all in in agreement about the top five).
As was said, it's a remarkably efficient language -- I can do things in five lines it took 100 lines of C# code. So it's worth knowing (and using).Please give me an example of something that does 5 lines in Python, versus 100 in C#. I am paid by the hour, so this sounds horrible, but for my own knowledge I would like to know what you are talking about. I just looked at the code for the hand puppeteering sample, and I am about to not bother learning python from looking at it. It looks you are expected to know the names of all these objects, is that correct? You might not be the person to ask this, but is there something like an Object Explorer that I can find all the objects in project that are available to me. Without Intellisense, this seems like going back to punch cards. I have yet to see anything C# can't do, people have tried to show me F# and R and convince of some reason why C# couldn't do that, and I have never seen a convincing argument other Microsoft wanted to not use C# for something. I will go back to my high paying open source development; I am too old to learn new tricks.

Hi Kevin,
yes, Pythom is OOO, you can create classes and code in "OOO-thinking".
What is special with this language is several ready-made data structures but also the so-called "phytonized" lines of code where with one single line of code you can do what would require many lines if code in other languages.
Anyway, if you know all of these languages you will be able to jump in very easily.
Cheers
Robertophytonized - Just because something can be accomplished in one line, doesn't mean that is the best way to write it.

Personally I will be back home in 2 days, no way to check it before but in the meanwhile I can study the docs

Said this, you previously mentioned that the GUI is based on QtPy: they have an integrated IDE for the GUI development.
I wonder whether at least this one can be use to build up the GUI before the actual code that takes the control over iClone internal element is run.
Regards
Roberto
Hi Roberto, Unfortunately, we don't support the integrated IDE for QtPy in the first version of iClone Python API. But the team already realized that this function is important by your suggestion, and we will consider adding it in the future. Thank you for the suggestion and please feel free to let us know if you have any question. Hi Tony, These are good news, thanks. I am waiting for the release (few days, right? ;););)) and then I will surely report any suggestions that can help to improve your amazing product.
Regards
Roberto Maybe just few hours :cool:

Me too! I can't wait!
Is the API accessible through .dll calls so that I can access it with Delphi?
I would like to have components that I can redistribute. This would allow me to integrate interactive little iClone animations in my Desktop and Mobile applications.
Hi gerdich,
Yes, you can. Please check out this Documentation to get further information.
